Abstract
- dissection of the tissues, causing a collection in the perivascular area, which subsequently distended into the uterine cavity. There was then rupture, with sudden intractable blood loss. Diagnosis is difficult, requiring color Doppler ultrasound, CT scan, or angiography. Being a rare cause of secondary postpartum hemorrhage, a high degree of suspicion is required to anticipate this diagnosis. Uterine artery embolization is a safe and effective method to control hemorrhage under these circumstances. References
